Chevrolet at 100: A video retrospective

If you weren’t paying attention, you might have missed it: One of America’s iconic brands hit its centennial at the end of last week. The Chevrolet Motor Car Co. was cofounded on Nov. 3, 1911, by Louis Chevrolet and Billy Durant. The rest, as they say, is history.

Depending upon the era in which you came of automotive age, Chevy evokes a lot of different memories: catchy jingles from the brand’s longtime ad agency, Campbell-Ewald; racing and motorsports victories by some of Chevrolet’s legendary drivers, and, of course, the vehicles themselves.

Take a video stroll down memory lane with Autoweek and Chevrolet, and let us know in the comments section with which era you identify most closely.
